Thanks, for answer. Here is explanations: Screenshot-2.png - is how it looks like by default. Very convenient for user that accustom to horizontal panels.
Screenshot-3.png - is how it looks like then panel is Right/Left oriented. It takes to much space, and not very convenient to look at it. What is an option to improve the situation: is to have an option to show Images instead of the text "Application" "Places" "System". To show three images instead with corresponding tooltips. It would be beneficial for any layout and for any user. There many users use vertical menu to economize Horizontal height, as majority of displays are Wide, and as result have plenty of horizontal space that is not used properly. We do not want to instill our habits to others, and just need option to satisfy our preferences. Experienced users is familiar with these three menu items("Application" "Places" "System") an no need to them to have them in Text format, images will suffice. ** Changed in: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- [Usability] Ubuntu MenuBar applet to have an option to show icons instead of text https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/486747 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
